The Chicago Bears wasted no time clearing out veteran players this week, setting the stage for major shake-ups in NFL free agency and the 2025 draft.

The first NFL Draft pick from South Alabama, Everett played for USA in 2015 and 2016, joining the Jaguars when UAB dropped its football program after his single season with the Blazers in 2014. Everett is a free agent for the fourth time in his NFL career. This is the first time it has been involuntarily.

With that in mind, Athlon Sports has put together its first all-Chicago Bears mock draft of the 2025 NFL offseason with an emphasis on drafting multiple offensive linemen and building a wall in front of Williams to keep him safe. Here are the results, made using Pro Football Network's mock draft simulator.

ESPN projected bold free agency and NFL draft moves for all 32 teams, including this unexpected prediction for the Chicago Bears.

The NFL Combine is just days away. The Chicago Bears are prepped for a week-long stay in Indianapolis. While there, the Bears, led by general manager Ryan Poles, have plenty of roster holes to fill with eight draft picks to do so. Three of those eight picks come in the first 42 selections.

Who wouldn't want a star-in-the-making like Ashton Jeanty? Players like him will be tempting for the Bears, but it's imperative that they address the line of scrimmage.

In a new 2025 NFL mock draft featuring all skill players, the Chicago Bears land a bell cow running back with their first pick.
